Forget Gas, How About Razors...?

We've already discussed the fact that it would cost more to fill your tank with Evian than it does with gas...even at the current prices, so it doesn't really bother me much. What DOES bother me is the cost of razors and no one's talking about that. The biggest racket of all time and mums the word.

A pack of 100 single edge blades are $3.95, but a package of EIGHTSchick Quattro for Women refills are $21.50 at Rite Aid. Are you kidding me? And it's not like there's a choice here -even disposable razors are expensive and people NEED to shave.

What could it possibly cost them to make 8 refills when 100 single blades are $4??????? Unions, steel, China...I know this must be Bush's fault somehow.
